Default IDF choppers , made in USA, in service of drug cartel

American officials demand Israel provide explanations for how U.S.-made choppers sold to Israel ended up in service of Columbian drug cartel. Incident may cloud relations between countries.

The dubious affair, which was already investigated by the Israeli Defense Ministry, and later turned over to the hands of the police, was uncovered about two years ago.


Investigators revealed that the Defense Ministry signed a deal with an Israeli company three years ago, contracting it to negotiate the sale of five IAF helicopters for a sum of USD 100,000 per aircraft.


The ministry permitted the choppers, of a MD 500 Defender model, be sold either to the Mexican federal police, or to the Spain firefighters department. However, contrary to the terms of the license, the copters ended up in Columbia, by way of Canadian mediators.


A Defense Ministry spokeswoman said in response that "after suspicions were raised that an illicit exchange took place, the ministry launched an initial investigation into the matter last year."


"According to instructions of the chief prosecutor, the case was handed over to the police in 2004," she added.
What's your point with this story, Wes? Anyone can see it's in reality a non-story. If a Canadian group got involved and misled everyone, why even report the story?

And before you say your usual "if you have a problem talk to the writer of the story", I'm asking you, what was your point in posting this?

Do you have some sort of anti-Israel bias? Are you an anti-Semite, Wes?

A lot of the Far Left Wing Liberals have turned Anti Semite, their hatred for Bush and their "Blame America" agenda has driven them nuts, the little Sissy Jimmy Carter has done the same thing, the GW Bush America and Israel now have the same enemy The Fanatics within the Muslim Religion therefore if Israel is an Allie of America that means the American Far Left Wing Loopy Doops not only Hate Bush they now Hate Israel.

I wonder how it makes Striesand and that ***** head Jon Stewart feel to know that the Hated Bush is helping their Homeland, I wonder if Stewart & Striesand still have relatives in Israel, f-cking scumbags.

They sold some 30 year old helicopters to someone who wasn't who they thought it was. They've been investigating for a while.

I don't really understand the rest of your post. Kappy's again?
